The latest update of the Chicago Booth/Kellogg School Financial Trust Index survey shows that anger at the current economic situation has been growing among low-income households since 2014, and that low-income white non-Hispanics are angrier than most other demographics.

Hillary Clinton’s donors are wealthier than Donald Trump’s, at least judging from the value of their homes. The median home price of Clinton’s supporters is $639,796 while Trump’s donors’ median home price is $474,427.

Clinton received overwhelming support from workers in the banking, tech, and mobile industries. 98 percent of the total amount raised by workers at financial institutions like Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, and Citi went to Clinton’s campaign.

Vast majority of faculty and staff members from universities support Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump’s percentage of donations from faculty and staff is on average 0.5 percent of the total amount raised by each university.

As of August 31, 31.5 percent of Hillary Clinton’s contributions come from donors who contributed more than $100,000. Over the last three indices calculated by the Stigler Center since June, there has been a reduction in the fraction of funds raised in support of Trump from large donors.
